To know me, to know me
I can tell you, I don't make it easy
To be honest, I'm still learning myself
There are parts of me that I turned off, hidden for years now
If I didn't, I don't think I could function as a "normal" person in this society
I was born an Artist, something that I hide
Here to "starve" that's what they say, Give your heart and soul for little to no pay
I've got book smartsNickihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11191367788296234272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7833018094603733790.post-81822530572920669062013-09-08T20:33:00.000-07:002013-09-08T20:33:56.140-07:00NEW MUSIC ALERT: SOLO brings that 70's vibe back with 'Nothing'

"Solitude and reflection are necessary to give to wishes the forces of passions, and to enable the imagination to enlarge the object, and make it the most desirable." ~Mary Wollstonecraft
"If we listened to intellect, we'd never have a love affair. We'd never have a friendship. We'd never go into business because we'd be too cynical. Well, that's nonsense.

One of the main reasons I wanted to read it is because I found one VERY short excerpt from the book that talks about the Jupiter retrograde in the 8th house past life connection. I can't seem to find the entire book in English :(
